Bluestar is correct - the small barrel aging process does not work for "Straight" products. 2 years is just too long in a small barrel. This is what you drink (or sell) while your 53 gallon barrels are aging.

This spirit is designed to age for one year in a 15 gallon barrel, or 2-3 years in a 53. I know all the "research" on small barrels and why they don't work. It's all about having all the flavors peak at the right time. Since this is pot distilled we have the ability to customize the product to have just the right amount of each flavor compound available to oxidize into those flavors you want. The system works - I have the Double Gold medal from San Fransisco to prove it - no pixie dust required.

We have not certified our non GMO corn. (although we can see the field from the distillery). If you would like more information on the history of our corn supply email me and I will send it to you.

Hello David,
Where in MO are you planning to locate your operation? We have set up shop in New Haven, on the Missouri River between Washington and Hermann, in the heart of Missouri Wine Country. We're in our second round of revisions and should have our DSP very soon (knock wood). We'll be in Portland for ADI and perhaps we can connect there. There are only a few of us in Missouri so far, but it's a cordial group and everyone knows each other. Welcome aboard!
Cheers,
Ralph
